A STEADY TONE.
In Chicago the Markets Were
Surprisingly Steady, With Small
TpanSantiOnS

Special to the Globe
CHICAGO, Dec. 2.-SpeculatiOn is still
active, but the tone has moderated some
what. This is the day the markets were
to experience reaction and the scalp
ers all sold for break this morning.
The grain list opened weak, but cables
were firm, and New York, Duluth and
st. Louis were all strong and higher,
while the clothes of commission mer-
chants were bullying with buying orders
for country account. The markets felt
this infusion of new blood quickly, and
prices advanced instead of dropping
back. January wheat advanced before
10 O'Clock from 1890. to 1890, and May
from 1896 to S64c. Corn advanced sc
and oats &c. Provisions opened weak
and staggering, at materially lower
range of prices than yesterdays closing,
but recovered at once and the loss was
regained before the expiration of half
an hour. After the first whirl of excite
ment the market quoted down cOnSid-
erably, but signs of weakness did not
manifest themselves strikingly. The
country is still standing pat on its hold
ings and the short holders are not yet
out i'll sufficient force to produce
marked reactiOnary sentiment. As
judged by the quotations the markets
were steadily held to-day, but the I'M
dertOne is far from firm according
to the opinion of vast majority of
operators and brokers. If country
speculation should be plenty next week
further advance may be scored, other
wise the traders on the commercial eX-
change will be greatly disappointed if
the tObOggan does not start down the
incline and move with considerable
rapidity. Privilege trading had its in
fiuence on prices to-day. In both wheat
and corn the fluctuations were confined
rigidly to put and call prices. Theoreti-
cally, trading in privileges has ceased,
but as a matter of fact it is carried on
Oh an enormous scale OH the open
board. In May corn variations in
prices were within 114c range,
5416c being low and 551ic high. May
wheat ranged S535@S614c, and in both
cereals the clOSingS were fractiOnally
higher than yesterday. The markets
were much more tranquil to outward
view, though they are very nervous at
the core. Provisions worked up and
down actively. but the drift was in the
direction of lower range. The shrink
age in pork was about Zoe, in lard &c,
and in ribs 10@1215c. The transactions
in ribs and lard were heavy. The pro-
feSSiOnalS are working together and
they are on top of the market with their
full weight.
Estimated receipts for Monday:
Wheat, 100 cars: corn. 153 cars; oats. 9S
ears; hogs, 10000 head; for the week,
10000 head,
The Opiuion prevails very generally
that the visible supply will show only
small increase on the week, probably
not to exceed 750, 900 bushels.

Viennese ladies, but my impress
SionS of Vienna are quite barren
of any such visions of female lOvelineSS
as l saw in Budapest. The HungarianS
claim that their capital contains more
lovely women in proportion to the pOpu-
latiOn than any other city in Europe. l
arrived in Budapest at a very OppOrtune
time to see much of this charming side
of the city'S claims to universal admira-
ton, for the Hungarian exposition was
then in full swing. The business and
wealth of Budapest is very largely in
the hands of Hebrews, and among the
throngs of people that SWarmed in the
Exposition grounds the Jewish phySiOg-
nOmy was very pronounced. Beautiful
Hungarian JewesseS, with bright, black
eyes, clear, olive compilations and abun
dent tresses enter very largely into the
claim of female pTe-emimence for female
beauty enjoyed by Budapest. Indeed,
/ think without the Jewish and Sclav
element, Budapest would hardly come
up to the standard of many other Eu-
rOpean cities. tor the Magyar ladies do
not average high.
One must not leave Hungary. how
ever, without paying a measure of trib-
ute to visions Ofvagrant loneliness one
sometimes StumbleS upon in roadside
gypsy camps. The Hungarian gypsieS
are a very picturesque and inter-
esting part of the population, and
in their camps are sometimes
seen types of beauty that would
create a sensation in any city in

the world. In almost every gypsy band
is a maiden. selected apparently because
of her beauty, who occupies the position
of pet of the camp. She is paid homage
to by everybody, wears a prOfusion of
beads and trinketS, decOrateS her per-
son with wild flowers, and is not re-
quired to perform any of the drudgery
that falls to the share of the other wo-
men. The belle of the Hungarian
gypsy camp is generally distinguished
by brilliant. cOal-black eyes that Scin-
filliate with brightness; even teeth of
dazzling whiteneSS, complexion dark as
a daughter of the Nile. and abundant
tresseS vieing in blackncss with her
eyes. When distinguished strangers
visit the camp, the princess" is led
forth by some of the old women to ex-
tend welcome by kissing them oil the
backs of their hands.
One sees many very beautiful women
among the CrCatians and SlavOnianS.
1t is quite surprising, the number of
lovely faces that are to be seen in a
gathering of CrOatian peasants.
The beauty of these countries inclineS
to the passive; that MadOnna-like style
of loneliness, in which figure

The game requires twogoals, erected facing
each other, at a distance of twenty-siX yards.
In front Of each goal and six feet from it
there is a crease forming with the goal line IL
base within which each Of the players takes
his or her stand. One player takes the hoop
on both sticks and throws it Swinging it OFF
with his right stick and directing 1t with his
left in the direction Of the other player, en-
deavoring to send it past him through tho
goal. This the other player tries TO prevent
by catching the hoop on one or both of his
sticks; and if he y successful lie throws il
back at his opponent, in order if possible, TO
get it into his goal The hoop is thus thrown
NJ and fro between the players, the throEer
scoring one point each time that he succeeds
in sending bis hoop past his opponent into the
goal. This is briefly the principle Of the
game.
